This book is aimed primarily at web developers seeking to build better interfaces for the users of their web applications and programmers from desktop environments looking to transfer their applications to the Internet. It also proves useful to web designers eager to learn how the latest techniques can offer new outlets for their creativity. Although the nature of PHP, JavaScript, and Ajax applications means that they require some programming, all the required technologies are explained from first principles within the book, so even those with little or no programming experience should be able to follow the lessons without a great deal of difficulty.
